In Your Eyes

by Little One

In your eyes I see a thousand setting suns,

Glorious and mighty, more days are done.

In your eyes I see the beauty in a simple flower,

the majesty...the sweetness...the power.

In your eyes I see what could be,

faithfully, lovingly, you and me.

In your eyes my world spins round

your voice...passion the sound.

Mostly in your eyes I see love.
